A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 85 Unexpected Discovery of Song Xiangxue's Face

When the people surrounding the village chief heard what he said, they immediately started to complain and constantly started to criticize the captain.

Everything is Chen Zhiqing's fault. If she hadn't been so boastful, this wouldn't have happened.

Chen Zhiqing is also pitiful. She came here at a very young age. Her parents were worried about her and gave her money to support herself. Who could have known that she would be targeted by a thief and become like this.

Everything is the educated youth’s own business, why should they bring the villagers into the picture?

What Chen Zhiqing is? She is the one who brought bad things to us.

As soon as the captain heard what was said, he turned his head and stared at the aunt and said, "Aunt, this is a communist society. The proletariat leads everything. You should know what you can say and what you can't say.

If you accidentally say something you shouldn't say again and someone reports you to the Red Guards, the village won't be able to help you.

If you are reported again and someone in the village is accused of having an unsteady political stance or believing in evil spirits, the village's advanced collective award might even be taken back. Trouble comes from the mouth, so you better be careful."

When the people surrounding the captain heard what he said, they dared not say a word. After all, they had seen how the Red Guards searched homes. No matter your background, as long as you were reported or something was discovered, they would search your home and parade you through the streets without hesitation. Some Red Guards even took advantage of the situation. Many people lost a lot of money, tickets, food and many other things when their homes were searched, all of which were secretly taken away by the Red Guards.

The key point is that it was stolen and no one dared to say anything. They could only suffer in silence.

Moreover, this parade was not a good activity. They had seen it in the town and the village. There were big signs hanging on the chests, and anyone who could would be punched and spit on would be rewarded. The world was really in chaos.

So ever since the villagers witnessed the Red Guards ransacking homes and parading through the streets, they no longer dared to speak carelessly. They were even proud of being poor peasants, and sometimes even the middle peasants and rich peasants did not dare to challenge the poor peasants.

Even when there are some benefits or activities in the village, the three generations of poor farmers are more popular.

In addition, there were also people who had been sent down from their village. They had seen that they were living worse than the poor peasants, working so hard, with such low work points, and even wearing one layer of clothes over another in winter. If the team leader had not forbade the village to discuss these people who had been sent down, and had not forbade the villagers to go there, the children in the village might have made up a catchy song to satirize these people who had been sent down from their village.

When the team leader Liu Dashan saw that the villagers had stopped talking, his eyes darkened. After looking around, he said, "I have explained clearly to you the good and bad. Especially for those who are qualified to compete for recommendation to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University this year, you should pay more attention and find out who stole Chen Zhiqing's money and especially the bicycle. Money, food, and watches are easy to eat and hide, but bicycles are too big to be hidden or sold, so they are more likely to be discovered.

For those who are hoping to get more meat after the village is named an advanced collective this year, you should quickly go find your relatives and friends such as aunts and uncles to see if there are any abnormalities in the surrounding villages. If you find any abnormalities, tell me or the militia captain and ask them to verify it.

If it is true that the theft at the educated youth site has affected the reputation and other issues of our village, then this matter is not just the matter of the educated youth alone, but the matter of all the villagers.

Also, don't let me hear again that the educated youth points are the educated youth points. The educated youth points are the educated youth offices of the state and Chairman Mao who arranged for us to build a new countryside. They are responding to Chairman Mao's call to build a new countryside. If anyone says again that villagers are villagers and educated youth are educated youth, and someone reports you to the town's educated youth office and says you are disunited and not following Chairman Mao's instructions, and you are taken away to be educated by the Red Guards, then I will not be able to rescue you.

Let’s all think about this carefully.

Also, don’t forget to hold a meeting at the warehouse entrance after work this afternoon.”

After saying this, Captain Liu Dashan no longer cared about the expressions and words of the people around him. He turned around and walked towards the educated youth point, wanting to see how the public security comrades and Chen Jiaojiao were communicating.

After Chen Jiaojiao left the brigade warehouse, she walked towards the educated youth site, thinking that the people at the educated youth site were the ones she was most familiar with. Moreover, the people at the educated youth site also had work points and wages. Although it was little, it was at least there, and she could definitely borrow it. Besides, she had already written to her parents to ask them to mail things and money. She could return it to them when the money arrived, and they would definitely lend it to her.

Thinking of this, Chen Jiaojiao walked faster and faster, and even started to jog later.

Shen Jiaren watched Chen Jiaojiao walk faster and faster, and then start to run, and couldn't help but find it funny. Where did this kid get the confidence to think that the people at the educated youth site would lend her money?

Even if she was rich and had her place set up there, most of the people in the educated youth center came from poor families. Of course, it was not ruled out that some of them came from wealthy families and were hiding their wealth like her. But at this point, she had to borrow money from someone right after being robbed. What if the thief found out and targeted her?

Besides, she is penniless now. Even if she relies on her parents, they are far away. It is hard to say whether her parents can send money or things. Who dares to give it?

Shen Jiaren saw that Chen Jiaojiao had already run to the educated youth point. After entering the point, she did not dare to dawdle any longer. She took a few quick steps and prepared to follow closely, just in case Chen Jiaojiao was in a bad mood and accidentally hurt herself.

When Shen Jiaren entered the entrance of the educated youth center, she heard Chen Jiaojiao asking Song Xiangxue for money. Maybe because Chen Jiaojiao was too embarrassed to speak out loudly, Shen Jiaren, who was behind Chen Jiaojiao, did not hear how Chen Jiaojiao asked Song Xiangxue for money, but what Shen Jiaren saw was Song Xiangxue with an embarrassed look on her face.

Song Xiangxue said with difficulty, "Chen Zhiqing, I know it's not easy for you to ask, but I'm really sorry, I don't have any extra money or notes to lend you. I don't even have enough money and notes for myself right now, so I dare not delay my work points. I rely on the rations given by work points to maintain my basic life."

When Chen Jiaojiao heard what Song Xiangxue said, she said in disbelief, "How could it be? How could you not have it?

That fever-reducing medicine you brought me when I was sick?

Later I heard that there was no antipyretic medicine in the village team, and it was you who got it.

And when I was sick and you took care of me, you gave me food.

And what did you eat when you were taking care of me?

Those walnut cookies, those canned yellow peaches, and those White Rabbit milk candies?

I have seen it in the supply and marketing cooperative in town. The walnut cakes and canned yellow peaches are more expensive than White Rabbit candy, not to mention that you also have White Rabbit candy. Ordinary people can't bear to eat White Rabbit candy, even fruit hard candy, but you gave me so many White Rabbit candies at that time! ! "

When Song Xiangxue heard what Chen Jiaojiao said, she wanted to say a few more words, but she saw Shen Jiaren coming in from the entrance of the educated youth center and walking towards them. She quickly changed her words and said, "Didn't I tell you, it's not mine. Someone gave it to you. If you must ask who gave it to me, then it was the person behind you who gave it to me."

When Shen Jiaren heard what Song Xiangxue said, she was very curious. Did Song Xiangxue not say that the things given to Song Xiangxue and Chen Jiaojiao when Chen Jiaojiao was sick were given to her? Or did she only give part of the things to Chen Jiaojiao? Wasn't it divided into two baskets, one for each person?

Shen Jiaren understood a little bit at this time. No wonder after Chen Jiaojiao recovered, she still ignored and looked down on her. She thought Chen Jiaojiao had no conscience or was a heartless person who only cared about eating and didn't care about anything else. From this point of view, is there another hidden story?

After listening to Song Xiangxue's words, Chen Jiaojiao turned around and saw that it was Shen Jiaren who was coming towards her. Chen Jiaojiao looked behind Shen Jiaren, hoping that there would be someone else. But after looking for a long time, she saw only Shen Jiaren. She said in disbelief, "Song Zhiqing, even if you didn't want to lend it to me, you didn't have to lie to me, right?

You said that the food you gave me at that time was all given to me by Shen Jiaren? ?

You don't have to make up this lie to me, right?"

When Song Xiangxue heard what Chen Jiaojiao said, especially in front of Shen Jiaren, she instantly felt embarrassed and her face flushed, as if some secret had been exposed. "She gave it to me. If you don't believe me, you can ask Shen Zhiqing." After Song Xiangxue finished speaking, she turned around and went back to her room without saying anything else.

Chen Jiaojiao still didn't believe it after hearing this, she turned around and said to Shen Jiaren, "Did you really give it to me?

Antipyretic medicine? White Rabbit candy? Peach cake? And canned yellow peaches?"

When Shen Jiaren saw Song Xiangxue's action and Chen Jiaojiao's action, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Hey, what's going on? What's the saying? What's the saying about doing good things and being impersonated?

I had been thinking that my thermometer would probably never be returned to Chen Jiaojiao. After all, it had been so long and she hadn't even mentioned it. Now it seemed that there was still hope for the thermometer to be returned.

Shen Jiaren didn't care whether Song Xiangxue was listening in the room or not, and answered directly, "Yes, I gave it to you.

Song Zhiqing came to my door and brought the antipyretic pills, saying that you were unconscious with a fever and there was no medicine in the team, so he came to me and I gave you two pills.

As for food, for some reason I knew that no one took care of your food and drink, and only Song Xiangxue would come back from work to make you some food and drink, so I prepared a portion of food for you and Song Xiangxue. In each basket, there was half a pound of peach cakes, half a pound of White Rabbit milk candies, and four large cans of yellow peaches.

When I came over, you were in a daze with a fever and took some medicine before going to sleep. I gave both baskets to Song Xiangxue so that you and she could eat separately to avoid a fight.

By the way, I gave you a thermometer so that I could take your temperature. Now that you mentioned it, please return the thermometer and the two bamboo baskets to me.

The basket is easy to deal with, but the thermometer is difficult to deal with. The thermometer must be returned to me."

After hearing what Shen Jiaren said, Chen Jiaojiao's eyes widened and she said in disbelief, "What?

Two antipyretic pills!!!

Half a pound of peach cake!!!

Half a pound of White Rabbit candy!!!

There are also four cans of yellow peaches!!!

And a thermometer???”

Shen Jiaren listened to Chen Jiaojiao's questioning tone and nodded affirmatively, "Yes, please return the thermometer and my two bamboo baskets to me."

Chen Jiaojiao wanted to say something after hearing this, but before she could start, Song Xiangxue came out with a bamboo basket and said to Shen Jiaren, "I'm sorry, Shen Zhiqing, I was too busy some time ago and forgot to return it to you. Here are two bamboo baskets. I accidentally broke the thermometer. As for the antipyretic medicine, Chen Zhiqing has taken it all, so I can't give you another one."

Shen Jiaren smiled when she heard this. It had been a long time since Chen Jiaojiao fell ill. If Chen Jiaojiao didn't bring it up, would Song Xiangxue think that she didn't want him anymore?

Or do you feel that because Chen Jiaojiao has a reputation for being arrogant and domineering, you can't afford to offend her and are too embarrassed to ask for it? Or do you feel that you know that Chen Jiaojiao and I have quarreled and there is a rift between us, but you are too embarrassed to say it?

As for the antipyretic medicine, I clearly told him to take one pill first, and if it didn't work, then take the second pill. And I also came to see him at that time, and the fever went away after I took the first pill, so how could I have the chance to take the second pill?

This is really like taking off your pants and farting.

Shen Jiaren smiled and said, "Just take the medicine, and I'll take the basket. Just like this thermometer, if you break it, you can just pay for it. You should know how hard it is to buy a thermometer. It's not enough to just have money and tickets.

And I bought my thermometer in Shanghai. I won't tell you how much it cost. I also don't ask you to buy me an identical one. Just buy me a thermometer locally. If you don't want to, you can write me an IOU, either for money or a thermometer, and write down when you will return it to me, and then ask the leader of the educated youth camp, Zhao Yuanchao, to be a witness."

When Song Xiangxue heard Shen Jiaren say that writing an IOU was no big deal, it was just an IOU. But when she heard that Zhao Yuanchao had to be a witness, her face instantly drooped and her expression immediately turned ugly.

Shen Jiaren stood there without saying anything, waiting to see how Song Xiangxue would respond. If it really didn't work, and the educated youth center couldn't provide paper and pen, she could go back home and get some.

When Chen Jiaojiao saw the looks of Shen Jiaren and Song Xiangxue, especially how Shen Jiaren could make Song Xiangxue, who usually looked so smiling, look so ugly, she didn't dare to say a word for a moment and just waited to see how Shen Jiaren would perform.

Seeing that Shen Jiaren didn't say anything and was turning around and looking around in the educated youth center, as if she was looking for something, Song Xiangxue quickly patted her head and said,

"Oh, Shen Zhiqing, I'm so sorry, I forgot. I accidentally broke someone else's thermometer, not yours. Please wait a moment, I'll go into the house and get it for you."

Shen Jiaren didn't say a word, just stood there waiting for Song Xiangxue to bring out the things.

Chen Jiaojiao was stunned when she saw Shen Jiaren and Song Xiangxue's actions. Can this be done this way?
